It is this Ragnite ore that is a key element in the story, as it is linked to a race of powerful beings called the Valkyur.

Able to channel the power of Ragnite directly, the Valkyur conquered much of Europa and in doing so changed how history perceived them.

It is this rewriting of history and how the Valkyrur entered into legend that the game deftly deals with.

Of all the PS3 games, which Sega developed and published, Valkyria Chronicles was one of the system’s best titles. Not least because of the way it looked, as it had a wonderful hand drawn art style, but also because it had fascinating tactical game mechanics.

In among this, Sega is keen to emphasize that the game had an equally engaging story as well and in that regard, I am in full agreement.

While Valkyria Chronicles already received an excellent release on PC, this new PS4 remaster will add an all new difficulty mode as well as other content and improvements. The launch copies of the game will also include a demo for Valkyria: Azure Revolution, which is set for release later this year.

Set for release on February 10th in Japan on PS4, Valkyria Chronicles Remaster currently does not have a Western released planned. Though considering the success of the PC release, it is likely this PS4 version will also receive a worldwide version at some point.
